Berlin im Vorfrühling. Eine Zufallsgemeinschaft ganz unterschiedlicher Menschen – ein Kunstkritiker und seine halbwüchsige trans Tochter, ein arabischer Prinz, ein alternder Lebemann mit seinem deutlich jüngeren Internet-Date und eine hinreißende Grande Dame – wandert durch die Stadt, von einem Galadiner im verblüht noblen Hotel Interconti quer durch den nächtlichen Tiergarten, stets verfolgt von einem Kripomann, der Verbotenes wittert.

Sister Europe tells the story of one wild night in Berlin, as a ragtag group meet at the Hotel Interconti to celebrate an elderly author’s venerable career (all under the resolute assurance that their wealthy host will provide a free and fancy dinner). Inevitably, boredom, hunger and horniness set in, and the gang—a young trans teen and her father; an ageing publisher and his flakey date; a dog, a troubled heiress and an Arabic prince—are flung out on an exhilarating odyssey through the city’s shadow and light.

Naema, an elderly princess dedicated to her pet causes, is in a bind: struck by a malady that maroons her in Montreux, she’s unable to host an exclusive gala dinner in Berlin to honor the author Masud al-Huzeil for his lifetime achievement in Arabic literature.

Masud invites his old friend Demian, a native Berliner, who in turn invites his two best friends.

Aber unter der blendenden Sonne Kaliforniens sieht der weltberühmte Regisseur mit einem Mal aus wie ein Zwerg. Nicht einmal Greta Garbo, die er unsterblich gemacht hat, kann ihm helfen. Und so findet Pabst sich, fast wie ohne eigenes Zutun, in seiner Heimat Österreich wieder, die nun Ostmark heißt.
